How To Save Our Planet / Why We Shouldn't Litter 

 Speech 

By Cathy 

 When I was little I didn’t know anything about plastic and what it can do. Now that I do know what it is and it’s harmful effects to the environment, I strongly believe that we all should not litter. We should be a litter free school.

 Did you know that Scientists believe that if we don’t stop littering now, in 2050 there will be more litter in the sea than fish, and that is a lot of rubbish. We need to stop now!

 One thing you could do to prevent this from happening is that you could buy a lunch box with little compartments in it, so that you can just bring food and so you don’t need to bring any rubbish to school.

 Another thing you could do is bring nude foods to school. I know this sounds funny but nude foods means foods that come with no rubbish like plastic wrapping. If it’s reusable plastic like little plastic containers it’s okay. You can wash plastic containers thoroughly and reuse them over again and again.

 If you  don’t want to have litter everywhere you can do these things:

•  Bring a healthy lunch box to school everyday Bring foods that come with no rubbish {bring nude foods} 
• Bring a lunch box with compartments or little boxes in it 
• If you like yogurt and want to bring it to school, you can put it into a reusable container. Reusable containers allows you to wash them so that you can use them again and again. 
•  Use reusable bags like ziplock bags and wash them after use. 
• Our school could have different rubbish bins like a: Recycle bin, Cardboard bin, Normal rubbish bin, and a Compost bin. 

 If you don’t want litter to be all over our school we need to be a litter free school. There are very simple things that we can do to be a litter free school. So get up, don’t be lazy, and don’t litter!

Recount Of Cordes Hotel by Cathy / Catherine

This is my Recount Of Cordes Hotel:

Recount Of Cordes Hotel

It was finally Monday and time to go to the hotel to do some coding. I was so
excited and my friend Neesha was too! We ate a big morning tea and went into
class. After everyone ate a bit we all lined up and to go on the bus.

Usually me and Neesha are in the same class so when we go  on trips we take
turns sitting near the window. This year when we got on the bus we realized the
bus had cold air coming through the air conditioners, it was so cool!.

When we reached there and stepped into the hotel we saw lots of fancy people
wearing red coats looking at us. “Hello” they said. Then everyone said “Hi”
back. We all started following Miss Paton to the coding room.

When we got to the coding room we all were amazed. As soon we got in the
teachers from the Coding Clubs - Sarah and Michael told us to go on the mat.
When we looked up we saw a beautiful chandelier hanging from the ceiling.
It was so pretty!

After the teacher showed us what to do we all got to go on a laptop and started.
I picked the front seat and I told Neesha

“There’s a spot here come fast “ I said. When Neesha sat down she realized she
was using the laptop that was casted on the projector in the room. Everyone
could see what she was doing.

Neesha didn’t really like that at first so she asked if she could swap seats with
me and I said “ Yes ”. It was so much fun! Whenever I tried to connect a sound
\to the game I was making {Ghostbusters} everyone could hear it. Sometimes
we got scared because it was really loud.

After awhile we all finished and it was time to present. After that we all got awards for taking part at the
code club workshop. We even got plastic water bottles with cold water inside, great for summer. It was
time to go so we all walked back onto the bus and went back to school.

Being at the code club workshop was so much fun. We learned how to use scratch better and we made a
game. We even meet some people who came from all over the world. This trip was really fun!
